True leukonychia: case reports and review of the literature.
Article in Dermatology reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Leukonychia refers to the whitening of the nail plate. We identified 22 cases reported in the literature. This study presents two cases of idiopathic leukonychia from Saudi Arabia, which, to our knowledge, are the first reported cases in the region. The first case involves a 26-year-old male with a decade-long history of white discoloration affecting all fingernails. He exhibited low vitamin B12 and elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone levels. The second case involves a 23-year-old female with asymptomatic white discoloration on five fingernails and a positive family history of leukonychia in her younger brother. This case series contributes to the limited knowledge of true leukonychia and emphasizes the importance of recognizing its benign nature and distinguishing it from other nail disorders.
